coldtype.time.Timeline

class Timeline(duration, fps=30, storyboard=None, tracks=None, jumps=None)

General base class for any kind of timeline or sequence, in the NLE sense

• fps is frames-per-second, and defaults to 30

• storyboard is useful if you want to always see a given frame when your animation loads for the first time, or you’d like to see multiple frames, i.e. storyboard=[0, 5] to see both frame 0 and frame 5 in the viewer

• tracks is mostly used internally by subclasses that process external data from another NLE or data source like subtitles

• jumps can be used to mark “jump-points” within a timeline, for easy skipping around with the up/down arrows (akin to up/down arrow movements in NLEs)
